During the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour where The Rock was promoting his new TNT series, The Hero, The Rock discussed WrestleMania plans and his return to RAW this Monday night. He noted that his angle for WrestleMania would start this Monday with his return, which he said would be "big."

"That will lead to, hopefully, what will be the biggest WrestleMania of all time at Giants Stadium," Rock said. "I will headline that show, with someone who I can't say right now. We've got an amazing four months lined up and planned out that will culminate in the biggest WrestleMania of all time. It's going to be a hell of a thing."
